This seems like a pretty textbook case of capitalist alienation. As jobs and wages get worse, American men can’t rely on them to back their sense of self and purpose like they used to.

How would we fix this under socialism?

    I dont even blame it on people like andrew tate telling young men that if they arent millionaires by 20 they are failures. I mean Im from turkey so idk how bad it is over there but I wouldnt work any job for a minimum wage rent costs like 70% of it. How do we fix this under socialism? Kiss landlords.

      I agree. Influencers like Andrew Tate are a symptom, not a cause of the problem. If capitalism forces men into this situation, they will look for explanations of why, even if these explanations are blatantly misogynistic.

      Of course, it isn’t helped that liberals present no coherent solutions supporting mes.
